Preschool Toys

Too often children are attached to a screen, whether it be a TV, tablet, iPad, or smart phone. This year I am encouraging parents and professionals to put down the technology and buy educational toys that children will enjoy and as a bonus, get our children creating, interacting socially with others, and develop a whole range of language and motor skills.

School Age Toys

At this age, children are developing interests. Some like art, some like building, some like books, some like sports, etc...Attempt to foster these skills using our holiday shopping guide!

If you can, try to avoid too many technology "toys" including computer games, video games, apps, iPads, etc... They are fun and functional for certain things but they can't replace working with your hands and partaking in social interactions with others. Let's inspire creative kids this season!
